Died in Appropriations Committee on Criminal and Civil Justice
Summary
The proposal updates Florida’s sealing law to allow individuals convicted of non‑violent misdemeanors to ask a court to seal those records, provided they meet new eligibility rules such as not currently serving a sentence and having no prior sealings. It requires applicants to obtain a certificate of eligibility from the Department of Law Enforcement and pay a $75 fee. Courts could also seal multiple related convictions in a single order, but sealed records can still be disclosed for certain jobs or legal proceedings.
